EDITOR’S LETTER
Jo-Anne Wright, Managing Editor
W E L C O M E
As well as being an avid cook, I’m also one of the grow your own tribe -- nothing
tastes better than freshly dug new potatoes… As I write this my kitchen windowsills
are full of little pots and trays of seedlings as I keep one eye on the weather(particularly the last frost) and try to deduce the right time to plant them out.
Last year I enjoyed Black Russian tomatoes -- a great new twist with mozzarella
and basil. Spurred on by growing and tasting fruit and vegetables not widely
available, this year I’m trying a range of seeds from the Heritage Seed Library
that aims to conserve vegetable varieties for future generations.
Britain has a great heritage for all manner of things -- particularly so when
it comes to craftsmanship. We have a superb pool of talent in the UK --
time-served people skilled at making kitchen cabinets boasting raised andfelded panel doors, dovetail jointed drawers, fnished in book-matched
exotic veneers… The most innovative companies add to this quality
workmanship the best in contemporary design coupled with the
ever-desirable unique new twist -- turn to British air on page 48 for more.

THE ownersMike and Suzie Bennett live in a newly built period-style house on
a 1,200 acre working farm in Wiltshire. Mike is a company chairman
turned farmer and Suzie is a teacher. They were looking to create
a large kitchen and family room, oriented so the person doing
the cooking could look out of the windows or chat to guests.

WONDERFUL YEWBeautiful locally grown yew wood, along with detailing in Britishburr walnut and a solid oak oor, link this gently curvaceousfarmhouse kitchen rmly into the rural landscape, while providi

to link directly into the ruralHampshire landscape in
which the home is situated

ooking for a practical, sociable farmhousekitchen for their new-build home, Mike and Suzie
Bennett approached designer Johnny Grey.
What was the brief?
Suzie: “We wanted a large kitchen/family room
with a separate pantry, lots of storage, and eatingand sitting areas. We wanted the person cookingto be able to look around the room or out of the
windows rather than at the wall, and we needed a
separate sink/dishwashing area so that any ongoingdetritus could be swept away and dealt with later. We also asked for the tea and coffee making areato be in a separate unit with a boiling water tap.”
Why did you choose Johnny Grey?
Suzie: “We liked the use of different natural woods and curves in his designs which we
felt would echo our rural environment andgive a timeless feel to the kitchen.”
What was the inspiration?
Johnny: “The design was inspired by makingconnections to the landscape. They have their own
yew woodland, and we wanted to use the timberfrom there, but there was a problem with harvesting
so we ended up using locally grown yew.”
Why did you mix the woods?
Johnny: “I don’t like to use the same wood
everywhere. I dislike ftted kitchens and I
despise the mentality that says that everythinghas to match. It’s not natural – humanslike to furnish their own houses.”
Were there any design challenges?
Johnny: “There was very little wall space, but there was a walk-in pantry which takes the pressure off
the temptation to put in too much cabinetry. It’snot about building things into every nook andcranny and cramming it in. When you have an islandthat is really big then it can look clunky, so we
introduced the fun element at the end that distractsthe eye. It says ‘I’m a desk, you can use me likea table’ – we are sending subliminal messages topeople all the time about how to use the kitchen.”

“There’s a lot of misunderstanding about how curvesare used. They should be generated by how people waaround the room and fnd their route around the keyareas. They are not there primarily to look beautiful.”Johnny

W Above: The drum-shaped storage units made from
yew are used for housing crockery and keepingsmall appliances out of sight, but they also add
a natural look to the design, subtly resembling
trunks of natural timber. The worktop is nished in
natural honed black Nero granite, which provides
a sleek contrast to the texture of the timber
Right: The breakfast dresser is situated near to a
coffee table and seating, and is designed to facilitate
small business meetings as well as for the family. It is a
bespoke piece made in ash and burr walnut and houses a
Quooker and everything necessary for making hot drinks
THE
designer“I developed my idea of soft geometry after studyingEye and Brain: The Psychology of Seeing by Richard L.
Gregory about how peripheral vision works. When we
see a sharp corner our cortisol levels are raised as we
begin a ght-or-ight response. The smaller the room,
the more important it is that people aren’t alerted to all
these sharp corners. So design is all about getting people
to really enjoy being in the kitchen and to feel relaxed.”

Tell us about the breakfast dresser
Johnny: “In a large country estate you have visitors
coming into the kitchen all the time and the breakfast
dresser diverts them away from the main cooking area.”
What is the gantry for?
Johnny: “The function of the gantry is that by
echoing the shape, it turns an island from being a
lost soul to being connected with the architecture.”
Suzie: “We have a gantry-style lighting system over
the cooking area which also contains an extractor
fan. The kitchen lighting is part of a Lutron lighting
and AV system which controls the whole house.”
What is your favourite part of the design?
Suzie: “I like the curved cupboards in different
woods which give a natural feel to the contours of
the kitchen, particularly the drum cupboards which
look like trees. Visually it is striking but very user-
friendly. We allocated a large area and were afraid
that it would seem too big, but the design scale
is such that it comes together very well and
feels comfortable.”

Johnny Grey looked at the very latest metal construction techniques when
designing this ultra-modern kitchen for an 18th-century country home.
The curvaceous island is made of stainless steel and positioned so the
cook can see all the entrances to the kitchen as well as the courtyard.
Curved doors made of recycled translucent plastic hide a walk-in larder.
Standing on either side of the entrance door are two desks masquerading
as columns. Their fold-back doors open up to reveal desktop space for
aptops. Stools can be stored inside. Furniture made in West Sussex,
metalwork in Hampshire. Kitchens from £65,000. johnnygrey.com

Britpop brought regional accents and working classculture into the music business; Britart brought deadsharks into the art gallery -- but what of Brit kitchens?UK kitchen design has in common craftsmanship, anartisanal approach and the diversity of its inspiration.
“Modern British style is vivid and eclectic but draws from
a fantastic heritage of design principles and proud skillbase, from Classical through Arts & Crafts to exciting
contemporary inuences,” explains Jane Stewart, designdirector at Mowlem & Co. “It’s a synthesis of all that hasstood the test of time and all the many wonderful new
developments, from technology to manufacturing techniques.”
“British style is often characterised by a combination ofsuperb craftsmanship and a quirky touch,” adds CarolineGow, senior category manager at Fired Earth; while Steven deMunnich, design director at Smallbone of Devizes, believes:
“An appreciation for quality and bespoke design is whatsets British style apart, British homeowners have a keen eye
for detail and know exactly what they are looking for.”
It’s that quirkiness, and the ability of the British top-endkitchen market to create bespoke designs using time-
honoured skills, that gives the industry its edge.
Fired Earth’s on-trend retro Signage tile panels use the iconic imagery of the London Underground
to create a look that is pure British quirkiness. Hand-crafted at the World Heritage Site in Ironbridge,
Shropshire where the original tiles were made, slogans include Mind the gap, To the zoo and Way out.

Handleless kitchens are often associated with
contemporary, minimal continental design, but
here they have been used in a bespoke Urbo
lacquered kitchen by Roundhouse that includes
a wealth of design detail. The sleekness of the
lacquered units contrasts strongly with the book-
matched zebrano veneer of the wall cabinets,
while the industrial-style lighting and bar stools,
Silestone and stainless steel worksurfaces and the
retro tiling provide visual interest and a modern
twist. The result is a highly personal, one-of-a-kind
kitchen which embodies the versatility of modern
British design. Made in Malvern, Worcestershire.Kitchens from £35,000. roundhousedesign.com

This Sierra H Line kitchen from Masterclass Kitchens
was made in the company’s factory based near Cardiff,
Wales. The handleless kitchen is shown here in dark
Trufe and is combined with the Reno island in grained
matt Nutmeg grey nish. The design is available in a

design when mixed with other gloss or matt ranges.
Kitchen from £7,500. masterclasskitchens.co.uk
Try to keep to a restricted palette of colours and nishes and play off opposites such
as matt and shiny, or light and dark tones. Ensure each new nish you introduce sits in
harmony with the others. Here the silver coloured reective end panel on the kitchen
island ties together the stainless steel of the appliances with the kitchen cabinetry.

Like The Queen or Stephen Fry, the Aga is a national treasure (although like the monarch and the actor it has a
trace of foreign blood, originally invented by a Swedish scientist who manufactured in the UK). Nevertheless, Aga is
determined to move with the times and get its iconic cookers out of the countryside and into the city. The result is the

PARISIANROMANCE
THE ownersDavid and Mathilde Todd live with
their three daughters aged ve, four
and six months in a four-bedroomed
apartment in the 17th arrondissement
of Paris. The block is known as a
Haussman building as it was part of
the reconstruction of Paris begun in
1853 by Georges-Eugène Haussmann.

hen Mathilde Todd wanted someone to
create a romantic, feminine bathroomin her historic home, she turned tointerior designer Laura Sanders.
What prompted you to create this bathroom? Mathilde: “The old WC space had beenconverted into a shower. I wanted to bringa loo back into the master bathroom andalso have two sinks and a separate bathand shower – all in a long, thin room.”
What were the challenges of the project? Laura:
“The bathroom is a very long,narrow rectangle with four doors, two ateach end, so I had to be careful to choosesink units that were not very deep in orderto allow plenty of pass-through space.
With tight spaces you really have to thinkabout for whom you are designing – there’snothing worse than a tall client hitting hisknees against a wall when going to the loo.”Mathilde: “We knew there was enoughspace (but just barely), so finding theright fixtures to maximise the space
was really important.”

What inspired the design? Laura:
“The brief was to make it clean and beautiful.I was quite taken with New Ravenna’s Sophie Mosaicand I designed everything around that. All theother finishes were chosen in white to match the white Thassos marble in the mosaic. The look I wasgoing for was clean, white and contemporary, butusing the ancient medium of the stone mosaic.”
Is there anything high-tech in the design? Laura: “No, this is Paris!”
What is special about the apartment? Mathilde: “It’s an old Haussmann-style building,built in 1912 by the notable architect Charles Adda. He lived in the building and had his studioin here as well. It has typical Haussmann featureslike beautiful French oak parquet floors, intricatemouldings and carved marble chimneys.”
Are you pleased with the result? Mathilde: “I love it. I think the designcapitalises on the space and the way the sunfalls into the room. My favourite part is thecustom marble wall of gorgeous mosaic.”
THE
designer“With an all-neutral scheme of creams or greys, besure to try out all your materials in the space andin the sun before committing. Often you will findthey have tinges of blue or green that you didn’t seebefore which means they may or may not go withthe whole.” Laura Sanders, interior designer

All the senses come into play when you turn on the Love Me basin tap from Crosswater. Aside from the
refreshing taste of the water when you brush your teeth, there’s the bubbling brook sound, the sight of light
dancing on the rippling ow of water and the sensation of washing your hands in a living stream of water.
We can’t, of course, say that it smells good too but add some luxurious hand soap and you can enjoy a full
house of sensual experiences every time you turn on the chrome nished tap. £295. crosswater.co.uk
Always look at the minimum bar pressure the tap, bath ller or shower requires,
not all work on the same pressure and some require a pump if you are to get the
desired effect. Also consider the waste outlet, ensure it will cope with the ow plus
a bit more, to ensure you aren’t left waiting for dirty water to run away.

odelled on London’s traditional Georgian townhouses,
the London Square Fulham development makes
the most of the space by locating the kitchen and
family room on the lower ground oor, wherenatural light is limited. So it was up to interior
designer Helen Fewster, co-director of Suna Interior
Design, to come up with a design that gave a feeling
of being light and bright.
“We always try to enhance the architecture of
the building and reect this in the interior,” says
Helen. “Here we were inspired by the natural
light. We wanted to keep the designs light and
reective, to retain the feeling of openness in the
open-plan family areas while creating a generous
kitchen in keeping with the size of the home.”
The glossy ivory kitchen and mirrored splashbacks
succeed in reecting even the faintest spring
sunshine, but Helen has taken careful steps to avoid
it looking too clinical. “The brief was for the interior
to reect the desirable location,” she says. “We have
combined a contemporary, streamlined interior with
natural materials such as the large format stone tiling
on the lower ground oors and rich timber ooring
in the living areas. The natural earthy tones soften
the overall feel and prevent it from feeling too cold.”

THE designer“A white scheme is both effective and
attractive because of its bright, clean
look; but it’s important to add texture
to avoid the space feeling too stark.
The mother-of-pearl mosaic tiles are
the perfect example of a nish which
is white but sumptuous, helping to
create a room that is warm, luxurious
and inviting.” Helen Fewster,
co-director, Suna Interior Design
“This is a luxury development in the heart of
a sought-after location in London and it wasimperative that the interior of the house reectedthe aspiration of the potential purchasers.” Helen

The theme
of reections
continues on into
the bathrooms. In
the master ensuite
the freestanding
tub is backed
by a half-wall of
Corian and glass
which allows
visibility through
into the shower
area with its
feature wall of
mother-of-pearl
mosaic which
glistens and softly
reects the light.The rounded tub
is the Eclipse
from Bagno
Design in white
composite stone
The developer expects that many of the properties
will be bought by families, so part of the challenge
was to create an interior conducive to social
living. “We wanted to create interaction within
the open-plan environment which led to theunique timber breakfast bar design,” says Helen.
Elsewhere, the desire is for a sanctuary away
from the kids, so it’s no surprise that the master
ensuite is the most luxurious of the bathrooms.
The air of luxury begins with the large, double-
ended Eclipse composite stone tub from Bagno
Design. The bath mixer is mounted on to a bespoke
Corian and glass half-wall which separates the bath
from the shower area that is clad in a sparkling,
lustrous nish. “The wall of the shower is a
mother-of-pearl mosaic which adds a luxurious
reective quality to the design,” explains Helen.
The bathroom also boasts a TV that can be
watched from the tub and bespoke cabinetry
throughout, including inset timber storage areas
within the shower and close to the bath, picking
up wooden accents beneath the basin and
wood panelling behind the WC. “By combining
luxury products in a contemporary yet classic
style,” says Helen, “we have achieved an interior
which has a timeless quality and provides the
perfect backdrop to a sophisticated home.”

elocating to a rural area away from the
daily hustle and bustle of the city gave the
owners of this large new-build home the chance
to have their dream kitchen. The small family
of four wanted a practical kitchen that would
suit their needs during the week, but that
would also look sophisticated so they would
be proud to entertain friends and
family at the weekends.
Kim Dufn, director at Sublime Architectural
Interiors, was called on to bring the family’s vision
to life. It was important right from the planning
stage to create a modern kitchen that would not

only be functional for the hosts and their guests,
but also to design a kitchen that would work
aesthetically with the rest of the building. “The
brief included showcasing the natural exterior
elements that surround the house,” explains Kim.
“My aim was to design a space that complemented
the modern exterior and incorporate linear
features to mirror the rest of the interior.”
A simple white colour scheme was chosen for all
the surfaces. “White is timeless,” says Kim. “It’s
also neutral and will not compete with the featured
surrounds”. The island front is in 80mm-thick
Quasar White Staron – a man-made solid surface

Storage has been carefully
considered so food and smaller
appliances are easily accessible
during the week and can be
attractively hidden when guests
are visiting. A breakfast hub and
walk-in pantry are concealed
behind aluminium framed
frosted glass sliding doors that
surround the integrated fridge
freezer. The pantry has a smaller
depth than the main kitchen so
for continuity an up-stand was
created between the worktop
and windowed splashback

material – while the matching door fronts
are much thinner and therefore considerably
lighter at 12mm thick. The worktop that runs
continuously from the inside to the outside
is 40mm-thick Aspen Glacier Staron.
Aluminium channell ing that runs throughout
the cabinetry and door panels connects the
inside and outside. “The aluminium provides
a strong linear line that draws the eye in and
around the kitchen, and then to the cabinets
outside,” explains Kim. The same aluminium has
been used to frame the glass sliding doors that
conceal the walk-in pantry and breakfast hub.

Lighting was a key element so Kim sought to bring
in as much natural light as possible however this
wasn’t without its challenges. “The kitchen is situated
on the south-eastern side of the home so it would
traditionally be dark,” explains Kim. “It was decided
quickly to use a fxed window as the splashback to
overcome the darkness and to catch the morning
sun.” The window is framed by appliances and a
yover which houses the extractor – the window
continues over the appliances too so that the kitchen
remains connected to the outside at all times.
The kitchen is divided into distinct zones so there
is plenty of room for multiple people to prep, cook
and serve while interacting with guests. The kitchen
perfectly balances the needs of the small family with
their desire to host friends and family. “Whether
the owners are preparing a family lunch or hosting a
grand party the kitchen is ready for any occasion.”

At last, galley slaves have been set free! Long, narrow kitchens with either single or double galley kitchens (units along bothsides) are known to be hot and claustrophic, because however
tight the cooking space it was thought necessary to keep thekitchen behind closed doors. Not so today -- linear kitchensare replacing the galley kitchen -- maybe taking up the end wall of a multi-purpose living area, or sharing the space
with a casual dining room or family room. These kitchensneed to look either unobtrusively elegant or out-and-out
eye-catching, and it’s vital to have enough storage to makesure that the end result doesn’t look messy and cluttered.
Secondly, the layout needs to take into account the cookingand eating habits of the user -- a cook who loves spicy ethnic
food, for example, will need an excellent extractor and most oftheir preparation space, as well as ingredient storage near to the
hob, while someone who spends more time baking may needmore prep space by the oven. Serious cooks may also needa sink at both ends, one for prep and one for washing up.
This is streamlined style where units need to be in just onedesign, one nish and have one style of horizontal handle
(if any), so the general appearance is one of overall harmony.
“Banks of appliances are very popular, the layout allows the
ovens to be tted at a more usable and comfortable height. Italso allows the ovens to be positioned neatly side-by-side,
giving the kitchen an attractive but functional look.”Stuart Chadwick, director, In-toto Kitchens, Leeds
Placing appliances in-line horizontally rather than above and below one another or in a bank of four
helps to create a clean, linear look. Here a Bauknecht Silverline 8100 PT Pyrolitic Oven, £1,045, is
next to a Silverline 8145 PT Combi-Microwave, £1,105, and 8145/1 PT Combi-Steamer, £1,230, each
with a warming drawer underneath, for a perfect in-line look. bauknechtappliances.co.uk

as it is on top, as every spare centimetre
has been used for storage. The handleless
wooden drawers, both shallow and deep,

while cunning appliance lifts also mean
a toaster and folding meat slicer can be

Linear designs are particularly good
or creating a calm, uncluttered look,
especially if they are as clean and
simple as the handleless Sahara
bathroom series from Doca. The
design is completely uncluttered – the
wall-hung units give a feeling of space,
he huge mirrored overhead storage
unit provides ample room for toiletries,
while the wall-mounted taps help to
keep the vanity area clean and clear.
Simple it may be, but Sahara is never
bland – the tactile grey-stained natural
oak veneer of the vanity unit makes
an interesting contrast to the super-
mirror nish of the overhead cabinets.As shown, £7,200. docauk.com

Many linear designs also feature a short return at one end. Here the bath itself
makes the L shape, keeping a neat structure to the room. Falper’s Level45
suite was created by Naghi Habib as a product to bridge the bathroom/
bedroom threshold. The more personal bidet and loo can be completely
concealed within the cabinetry, accessible by a lift-up lid, or, as in this design,
the undercounter space can be used for attractive shelving and storage.

When buying a towel rail or radiator don’t just go for looks. Its job is to make your bathroom toasty,
so ensure you select one with the correct heat output. Most radiators come in a series of sizes and
retailers should help you to calculate the BTU (British Thermal Units) heat output required.
